[QUOTE="bobsarcasm"]A while ago I read something about this, is this true?remmbermytitans
remember how kojima was begging for snake to be in smash? wellHe, im sure that part of the agreement was that kojima makes a metal gear for the wii
He did this begging just prior to the release of Melee and it was too late for them to put him in. Therefore they are holding up their end of the bargain this go around. And I think their compensation for that was Twin Snakes for GameCube, which was incredibly awesome.
No way. Have you seen the trailers for MGS4? Maybe another remade port (MGS2 or 3 this time), but Kojima takes too much pride in his games as visual masterpieces to downgrade the cinematic level beauty that is MGS4. I love my Wii and it's the only system I own, but the latest screens and vids of MGS4 are making me think about purchasing a second console. I don't have an HDTV, but it still looks beautiful.
From RedOctane's site in the Wii bundle product info section :
Rock Out Online Or Party Offline Defeat opponents to achieve legendary status in head-to-head competition including the all new guitar battle or share the glory with a friend in the new co-op career mode.
If there's a WiFi logo on the box (and there is) then that means we atleast get the song download feature, and one can only assume multiplayer as well. The article posted on gonintendo yesterday was dug up from January and reposted today by Gamespot. Should have been a Rumor Control article, not official news.
That article is from January, people. Guitar Hero III has online multiplayer for all platforms. That was confirmed like a month ago. Also, note the Nintendo WiFi Connection logo on the packaging art.
The only issue I have with employees at my local Gamestop and EBGames is their constantly pressuring me to preorder games. I understand that it's a business, and that's what they do. But I know how preordering works. I've been making preorders at EBGames since I was like 13 or so and I don't need their help with it. If I want a preorder, I will ask for a preorder. Worst of all is being asked constantly to preorder games for systems I don't even own. I think that their trade in values are perfectly fair when compared to rates of other places that buy and sell used games or movies or whatever. It's usually a ripoff. Don't do it unless you want to. Some people don't collect and like to get 3 or 4 games built up that they wont play anymore and then trade them for the latest new game, repeat the process. It's like getting a free game every time you buy 3 or 4 and with the prices of games these days, who could blame them for doing so if they want? Most people will regret it more than they thought though. People obviously love to play old favorites still, which is why things like the Virtual Console and classic games on PS3 and 360 online networks are doing so well. Also, I think it's fair of Gamestop to only accept store credit. Only accepting store credit for trade ins cuts down on the likelihood of someone stealing your stuff from you to sell it back to a store. The only place thieves have left to go for cash is the pawn shop, and that's the way it should be.
Some games make AWFUL use of it. Twilight Princess and Big Brain Academy come to mind. Wii Sports used it for little things that actually made sense, and that was enjoyable. Resident Evil as well. Looks like they abandoned the process altogether in Metroid Prime 3 though.
I used the USB connector for the last year or so, at first for my DS, and then for the Wii. When using my DS I had few problems, but once I started using my Wii it was a nightmare. For one thing, it pops up a message on your computer EVERY TIME the Wii connects through WiiConnect24 (which is about every minute or so if you have it turned on) informing you that a user is connected. At the time I was using a PC from 2001 that was a total piece, which further bogged down anything I was trying to do. If you don't have a fast computer or a great internet connection I would not recommend the dongle. Also the range of the signal is pretty weak. If your tv isnt in the same room as your pc, your going to have issues (I got mine worked out, but it was a hassle) In my new house I have a wireless router hooked up to the ole POS PC and I'm downstairs with my new laptop and Wii connected at a strong, constant rate. Couldn't be happier.
I tried doing this as well, and I can't figure it out. How do I get the game to load my SD data instead of what's already saved on my Wii? There are definitely a few games I have where I'm never going to unlock everything, but I'd still like to see what it does and maybe play some later missions. Anybody care to go into more detail? I tried it jaysonguys way and it seemed like a big mess last time I tried. Not wanting to corrupt any of my current save data I walked away and resigned to try it when I knew more about what I was doing.
